Cat Trap Hire

Hepburn Shire Council receives many complaints in relation to domestic and feral cats causing a nuisance.

Council’s procedure when receiving complaints is to supply the complainant with a cat cage ($120 refundable bond .. conditions apply), which are generally, only allowed to be set between sunset and sunrise.

Complainants will receive flyers to place in the letterbox of neighbouring properties to advise that a cage will be set in the area. When a cat is caught Authorised Officers should be notified immediately for pick-up or alternatively the cat can be taken to RSPCA Ballarat by the complainant, which is our pound facility for all cats.
